This is the first book that I've read by Laura M. Thomas and I was not disappointed! Ever since I discovered Laura through her website and annual short story contest, I have been very eager to read Polly Wants to Be a Writer. Not only is it a great piece of fiction, it has also inspired me. As an unpublished, wannabe writer myself, I found it very easy to relate to the main character, Polly, and her struggles with writing.

When you read this novel, it is very clear that a lot of passion and imagination went into the making of it. Whether you're a writer, a wannabe writer, or just someone looking for a good read, this book is perfect. Its quirky, inspiring, and captivating. The plot is very well developed and paced well. This novel had me anticipating each page with eagerness because I wanted to know what was going to happen to Polly and Scrum next.

When I finished the last page of Polly Wants to Be a Writer, I was almost sad because I wanted more! As a writer, I now wish I could see a physical representation of my literary dragon. I highly recommend this book and cannot wait to read another book by Laura.
